As always, the flight test will be livestreamed on the SpaceX website and on X, with a webcast starting 30 minutes before launch.

Time is running out for SpaceX to make a splash with second-gen Starship

STARBASE, Texas—A beehive of aerospace technicians, construction workers, and spaceflight fans descended on South Texas this weekend in advance of the next test flight of SpaceX's gigantic Starship rocket, the largest vehicle of its kind ever built. Towering 404 feet (123.1 meters) tall, the rocket will lift off during a one-hour launch window beginning at 6:30 pm CDT (7:30 pm EDT; 23:30 UTC) Sunday. The main concern for Sunday's launch attempt will be weather conditions at Starbase, located a

How the U.S. space industry became dependent on SpaceX

SpaceX is valued at around $400 billion and is critical for U.S. space access, but it wasn't always the powerhouse that it is today. Elon Musk founded SpaceX in 2002. Using money that he made from the sale of PayPal, Musk and his new company developed their first rocket, the Falcon 1, to challenge existing launch providers. "There were actually a lot of startup aerospace companies looking to take on this market. They recognized we had a monopoly provider called United Launch Alliance. They had

Static sites with Python, uv, Caddy, and Docker

Static Sites with Python, uv, Caddy, and Docker My preferred deployment stack for Python-built static sites. I’ve largely switched to uv at this point and it’s been pretty great. I use it for everything I can, from little scripts with uv run , to libraries, to applications. It’s so fast it does actually matter, the workflow side of things works well enough for me, and—perhaps most valuably—it manages Python executables for me beautifully. As we’re all familiar with by now, I’m a static site a

When Starship Comes to Florida, Expect 2-Hour Flight Delays, FAA Warns

SpaceX aims to expand its Starship operations to Cape Canaveral, Florida, with a goal of launching 44 super heavy-lift rockets per year. If regulators approve this plan, the uptick in launch activity could result in more ground stops, reroutes, and flight delays at major airports throughout the Sunshine State, according to the Federal Aviation Administration. In a draft environmental impact statement released this month, the FAA states that airports such as Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood Internation

Rocket Report: Pivotal Starship test on tap, Firefly wants to be big in Japan

My AI Had Fixed the Code Before I Saw It

Instead, I found a few strong comments from Claude Code , the AI that writes and edits in my terminal: "Changed variable naming to match pattern from PR [pull request] #234, removed excessive test coverage per feedbac

The unbearable slowness of AI coding

The Unbearable Slowness of AI Coding 19 Aug, 2025 I’ve been coding entirely with Claude Code for the past two months. At first it was exhilarating. I was speeding through tasks. I was committing like mad. Now, as I’ve built up a fairly substantial app, it’s slowed to a crawl. Ironically, the app I’m building lets me parallelize many instances of Claude Code at once. Often, I’ll have 5 instances running while I’m thinking about new features. The slowness comes in when I actually need to revi

Starship launches could delay Florida flights up to 2 hours, FAA says

As regulators weigh SpaceX’s plans to launch its massive Starship rocket from Kennedy Space Center, federal documents warn those flights could ripple through Florida airspace, forcing ground stops at multiple airports, reroutes, and delays of up to two hours.
